| intro |
The following text may make multiple use of each data field.
The field may contain magenta text presenting data from a type study
and/or revision of other original material cited in the protolog of the present taxon.
Macroscopic descriptions in magenta are a combination of data from the protolog and
additional observations made on the exiccata during revision of the cited original
material.
The same field may also contain black text, which is data from a revision of the present
taxon (including non-type material and/or material not cited in the protolog).
Paragraphs of black text will be labeled if further subdivision of
this text is appropriate.
Olive text indicates a specimen that has not been
thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text
where data is missing or uncertain.
The following material is derived entirely from the protolog of the present taxon.
NOTE: Spore data from papers by Z. L. Yang are presented following his use of the "Times New Roman" face for "Q" and "Q'"—respectively, "Q" and "Q." |

| lamella edge tissue |
from protolog: as sterile strip, up to 100 µm wide in side view, composed of clavate to broadly clavate to sphaeropedunculate cells (25 - 40 × 10 - 22 µm), terminal or in chains of 2 - 3, thin-walled, colorless, hyaline; filamentous hyphae very abundant, 2 - 5 µm wide, gelatinized, irregularly arranged or more or less running parallel to lamella edge. |

| discussion |
from protolog: "Amanita parvipantherina is a member of Amanita [subgenus Amanita] section Amanita (Yang 1997). A few collections cited above were regarded incorrectly as A. pantherina (DC. : Fr.) Krombh., but the latter has more robust basidiocarps with shorter striations on the pileal margin, a short limbate collar on the stipe base and more abundant filamentous hyphae in the white volval remnants on the pileus (Breitenbach and Kränzlin 1995; Yang 1997, unpublished data of Yang studying material from the Netherlands [THE NETHERLANDS: ZUID-HOLLAND—Wassenaar, 2.ix.1979 C. Bas 7474 (L)]). Amanita parvipantherina is similar to A. sychnopyramis f. subannulata Hongo (Hongo 1971) [on this site treated as A. kwangsiensis Y. C. Wang—ed.], but differs from the latter by its somewhat smaller basidiocarps with a superior annulus and larger, broadly ellipsoid to ellipsoid basidiospores. The basidiospores of A. sychnopyramis f. subannulata are mostly globose to subglobose, (6.0-) 6.5 - 8.5 (-9.5) × 6.0 - 8.0 (-9.0) µm, (Q = (1.0-) 1.03 - 1.14 (-1.19), Q = 1.07 ± 0.04) per Yang (1997). In addition, the warts on the pileus of A. parvipantherina are composed of more abundant filamentous hyphae than those of A. sychnopyramis f. subannulata. Amanita parvipantherina also resembles A. sychnopyramis Corner et Bas f. sychnopyramis but differs from the latter by the presence of an annulus, longer basidia, and larger, broadly ellipsoid to ellipsoid basidiospores. The basidia of A sychnopyramis f. sychnopyramis are 26 - 32 × 10 - 11 µm, and the basidiospores of this taxon are globose to subglobose, 6.3 - 8.1 µm, (Q = 1.0 - 1.1) (Corner and Bas 1962)." |
